Sure.

Assuming that modern Jewish calendars are correct (The Sedar Olam Rabbah may have incorrectly altered the correct date for calculating the year of Jubilee. It’s debateable, but I won’t go into that here.) Rosh Hashanah for 5727, which was the last Year of Jubilee, was on September 15-16 of 1966 on our calendars. That would mean the next Year of Jubilee, 5777, will begin on October 3-4 of 2016.

Now, if the Sedar Olam Rabbah was wrong in moving the first Year of Jubilee, this will make calculating the true Year of Jubilee much harder. I, personally, believe that moving the year of the first Jubilee was unnecessary as it’s not what is intended by a straightforeward reading of Leviticus, but I’m not an expert on this by any means so take my thoughts on the matter with a massive grain of salt.

Anyway, if the original entry into the land was in 2356 (1406 BC on the Gregorian Calendar) like Edwin Thiele’s dating suggests, then that would mean the next Jubilee would begin on 1 Tishri 5806, or September 12, 2045.

Lots of information to go over, with different data points to consider that may alter the date, but that’s all I have time for right now. I’ll see if I can nail it down any further a little later.

Nothing happened? The 15h was the start of a long downward slide. Obama disgraced himself in front of the G20, the move away from the US dollar as reserve currency became official, everyone thought China launched an atomic bomb off the coast of California, the Democrats stole a few elections, and the TSA single-handedly started a war between the Federal government and everyone who flies.

That's just the start.

Some people think they can harvest subliminal precognitive data by scooping up vast samples of casual text from the Internet, and process those samples using proprietary algorithms to extract hints about the future.

Is there a way to FReep it?

(Bwahahahahaha!)
